Caspar-Heinkel U-1 : ウィキペディア英語版 | Caspar U.1
The Caspar U.1 (sometimes known as the Caspar-Heinkel U.1) was a 1920s German patrol seaplane designed by Ernst Heinkel and built by Caspar-Werke.〔 The U.1 was designed to fit into a cylindrical container to allow it to be carried, then launched from a submarine.〔 ==Development== The U.1 was designed to meet a requirement to fit inside a cylindrical container long with a diameter of ; this allowed the aircraft to be carried by a submarine.〔 To reduce the time to launch the aircraft, it was built as a cantilever biplane to remove the need to rig struts and wires on assembly.〔 The U.1 had two single-step floats and was powered by a front-mounted Siemens radial piston engine.〔 The pilot had an open cockpit behind the upper wing which gave a clear view forward.〔 It is claimed that during tests, four men could remove the U.1 from the container and erect it in 1 minute 3 seconds.〔 Two aircraft were bought by the United States Navy for evaluation;〔 these were delivered to NAS Anacostia in late 1922, and were tested during 1923; one of the aircraft was damaged beyond repair whilst mounted on a truck for a parade.
